Hi Guys,

I recently ordered two rolls of the new Trix and two rolls of the new Plus-X from an USA Ebay store. The total price was £33 including shipping (admittedly it was surface shipping so took a while) and would have cost around £39 with airmail.

So, that works out at around £8.20 a ...

Hey everyone,

Just read the new news article on the home page of 8mm.filmshooting.com about Kodaks decision to stop making Ektachrome motion film, including the 7240 VNF super 8 stock. Does anyone know if this also means they are going to stop making Ektachrome 35mm stills film like EBX ...

Thanks for the help Guys,

Actor, the Plus-X I've ordered is in the old style box which I'm assuming is the older, so will it be exposed at 40ASA with the filter removed? What happends then when I want to shoot in daylight, do I engage the filter and what happens to the film speed if I do?

I guess ...

Gahhhhh! Its so annoying when that happens!

sorry everyone that was me! :oops:

Hi Eric,

I'm really interested in stills photography and I use the late 1970's Canon A series bodys. I highly recommend the A-1 which is very well built with a really strong metal construction and has a huge amount of features.

Heres a excellent site dedicated to the A series and T series SLR ...

Actually dont worry, I've sorted it out. Just me being thick!

I've also managed to succesfully repair the film, after a few practise attempts on a bit of leader of course!

Hey everyone,

Today I got a an old super8 release print with sound to try out with my sound projector and I'm having a problem with projection. On my projector (and I belive with all super 8 projectors) the sproket holes of the film as it enters the projector are supposed to be on the right hand ...

Cheers for the help guys, thats a great help

Hi Guys,

I've just completed my membership with Paypal and I'd like to be able to pay by paypal on ebay. How does this work, do I just go to the "send money" tab once I've won an auction?

Cheers for that Al, glad its a lot simpler then I thought.

Just another quick question, can I order things before I complete my paypal membership or is it best to wait until you get the membership code from the bank statement?

Hi all,

A while ago I posted about a shop called super8camera-shop.com based in Germany that I was interested in getting a few bits from. I know a couple of people ordered cameras and film from them and I wanted to know if everything turned up ok and if the cameras worked ok on arrival. I ask ...
